Chapter 69: Sherry’s strengths
The words fell and the man laughed softly, “I’ll give you three seconds, 1 …”
Sherry immediately went around to the other side and pulled the door open and got into the car.
Aaron’s face was complicated and indistinguishable, and after instructing the driver to drive, he ignored Sherry for another word.
He wants to make her a thorn in the side of the staff.This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
The man beside him said in a slow voice, “Working in the secretarial department, is it still going well?”
Sherry’s heart thumped, “It went pretty well thanks to Mr. Swift’s care.”
“Starting tonight, Eral is going on annual leave and you’re filling in for him.” Aaron spoke in a hushed voice, his eyes half closed.
“What?”
She almost wondered if her ears were out of whack or else Aaron was crazy.
“You heard me right.”
Aaron suddenly turned his head to look at her, “The people you’re hosting at the resort hotel today are not partners, they’re all sidekicks of the Henry Family, and there are people you know among them, who else is there for this vacancy?”
Sherry was frozen in place.
Several faces that had been her nightmare many times swept through her mind.
“No?”
He wrinkled his brow in a look of annoyance.
Sherry immediately bowed her head and said, “No, thank you Mr. Swift for the reappointment.”
In front of him, came a soft laugh from the man.
He turned sideways without discerning joy.
Not another word to Sherry.
The atmosphere in the car was awfully quiet the whole way.
Sherry has to work very hard to keep her emotions in check, and Aaron has been working late at the office for days on end since Alex returned home to deal with business matters.
No one else can understand it, but Sherry is very clear.
As the illegitimate son of the Henry Family, he could not inherit any of the Henry Family’s properties, and this was the only way he could prove to those in power at the Henry Family that he was no less powerful than Alex, the eldest son who had been carefully groomed by the Henry Family.
But if, for example, someone made him lose his identity in front of the Henry Family people …
The more Sherry thought about it, the more panicked she felt.
He was just trying to find a reason to torment her, but he made it sound so grand.
When they arrived at the resort, Eral took Sherry aside and gave her all the things Aaron had with him, as well as the itinerary.
“Mr. Swift’s preferences, as you should know well, I’ll be back the night after tomorrow.” Eral finished, and glanced towards the door, not forgetting to remind Sherry, “Mr. Swift seems to be interested in contracting this resort, there’s only so much I can do for you.”
“Thanks.”
Eral was reminding her of this for his own sake, as he would have to come back from leave to clean up the mess if Aaron got mad at Sherry.
They all knew in their hearts that Aaron’s appointment of Sherry to take his place had been planned.
“Mr. Swift should be meeting Alex later, so you’d better get ready in advance.” Eral finished settling in and went quickly to the other side of the car to greet Aaron as he got out.
The man’s aura was cold, looking at Sherry standing in the hotel lobby from afar, his eyebrows were thick with coldness, “Andrew, did you go yesterday?”
“Yes, Andrew went straight to the docks to get the man after he got the news, Jason failed to sneak in this time, he should be locked up for a while, and it seems his creditors smashed up Andrew’s car.”
Aaron suddenly felt lighter.
He wanted to see what the only son of the Biber Family could do for Sherry.
What will Sherry’s face be like when she finds out that she has dragged Andrew down with her.
Sherry took a deep breath in place.
Before we could adjust, an employee from Night Group came over there, “Sherry, are our rooms arranged? There’s luggage in the back, take it straight to my room.”
Without waiting for Sherry to speak, the employees were already showing their impatience.
“What’s wrong with you, you’re so early and you don’t even help with such a trivial matter?”
“Come on, don’t bullshit her, just a parachute to get into the company by the back door, no ability at all.”
Several of them looked at each other with a look of contempt.
He even stepped on the back of Sherry’s foot with his high heels as he walked up to her.
“Oops, sorry, I didn’t see you standing here, you’re dressed really cheaply and have no presence at all.”
“Sara, how can you talk about her like that, she’s the one who rode in Mr. Swift’s car.”
“So what, it’s just by that face …”
The more they talk, the more they go overboard.
Sherry took a deep breath, “Enough said?”
I have to fill in for Eral and prepare Mr. Swift’s clothes, food and accommodation for the next few days, I don’t have time to bother with you, are you more valuable than Mr. Swift?”
“…”
“If you can’t get these little things done, then can I assume that you can’t do such little things either, so how can you still be competent to do the work of the company, need I have a word with Mr. Swift?”
All at once, the faces of those few people changed.
Sherry saw Aaron about to enter and glanced over at the men.
“If you lose Mr. Swift’s face because a few of you are shouting in the hall …”
Before the words were out of their mouths, they had already bent down to pick up their luggage and ran to the front desk to check in, and didn’t even need Sherry to help them with their luggage as they ran one by one into the lift doors.
Sherry withdrew her eyes and turned again to see that Alex had arrived in the hotel lobby and was standing with Aaron.
Sherry gave herself a secret pep talk and walked over with her backpack, “Mr. Swift, your room is ready, I’ll take your bags over.”
Seeing that she was quite handy, Aaron gave a light hint.
Alex said, “Sherry, take my bags up there too.”
Sherry frowned and stood still on her feet.
Aaron’s eyes flinched as he watched Sherry’s movements and expressions. If she couldn’t handle this, she wouldn’t be in a position to take Eral’s place.
Alex, on the other hand, looked like he had a light smile on his face, “Thanks a lot.”
Sherry hesitated for a moment and called out to the lobby attendant, “This gentleman needs to move his luggage.”
Having said that, she just took Aaron’s luggage and turned to step into the lift.
In that instant, Alex’s eyes became unbearably cold.
It was Aaron who showed a few smiles and asked knowingly, “Your assistant is so incompetent.”
The words fell as he stepped off with long legs and into the lift.
Because Sherry had been holding the lift door open for him, that respectful look was right up Aaron’s alley, and he was very pleased with Sherry’s performance.
In the lift, he smoothly drew out a card and gave it to her.
“Your mother is going to be discharged from the hospital in a few days, right? The money in this card is yours to do with as you please.”
He held the card between his fingers, seductively.
Almost instantly, Sherry took it and hung her head in thanks, “Thank you Mr. Swift.”
She knew all too well the man’s temperament, which was to get a thousand per cent obedience from her, and she was already familiar with this.
The smile on Aaron’s lips intensified.
Opening his mouth, the sarcasm was extremely harsh, “Sherry, do you know what your greatest strength is besides this face of yours?”
